Klickitat County Commissioners approved their 2017 budget on Tuesday. Among other notable items, Commissioners decided not put construction funds in the budget to build two transmitter sites for its emergency communications system, but did leave in money to continue analysis. Commission Chair David Sauter says the two sites were left off the emergency communications system overhaul a few years ago due to financial limitations. The two locations are in the hills around Klickitat for better coverage of the Klickitat River Valley, and the area just over Satus Pass.
